I can imagine that people coming from the E-Business Suite are not that interested in creating stand-alone APEX applications, but they are more into creating an APEX page to extend EBS. They want to be in EBS, and in the menu some links will just open up some APEX pages. They want to see the information that is relevant at that time and have a seamless integration (so no extra logins etc).

I visualise that flow like this:

We can obviously use many of the techniques described in the other posts, but how does the authentication, authorisation etc work? Most of that is described in the Oracle white paper with a good example (starting at page 11). I might do some extra blog posts about that integration, but it will be in line with the white paper.

Hi DimitriDid you get this working with Apex 4.1? The Oracle samples work with Apex 3.2, and the screens for Authentication Schemes changed totally. I cannot map where the different fields should go to.Thanks - hopefully you can assist.

I have a problem with EBS integration, I have some reports that want to be opened by a link on EBS responsibility and when open it since the EBS main menu the link is succes but, when I open the JAVA menu it doesn't display.
